SpectraMax M5 w/cuvette port
Absorbance, Fluorescence, FI, TRF, Polarization and Luminescence Reader SOLD
Multi-Detection Reader and Dual-Mode Cuvette Port

SpectraMax M5 is a dual-monochromator, multi-detection microplate reader with a dual-mode cuvette port and 6-384 microplate reading capability. Detection include absorbance (UV-Vis Abs) and fluorescence intensity (FI) and have optical performance comparable to a top-of-the-line dedicated spectrofluorometer or spectrophotometer. Endpoint, kinetic, spectrum and area-well scanning read types and PathCheck® allow homogeneous and heterogeneous microplate assays to be performed in this flexible system. The FI and Abs microplate reader with built-in cuvette port allows easy conversion and optimization of very-low-throughput assays into medium-high-throughput microplate assays. The SpectraMax M5 allows faster, more precise results and reagent savings and is the top of the line instrument. In addition, combined absorbance and fluorescence intensity assays can be run by issuing a single read command.     Applications     DNA/RNA/protein quantitation and purity     PicoGreen®/NanoOrange™/Bradford     ELISAs/enzyme kinetics (i.e., Km, Ki, etc.)     Drug dissolution profiles     Live/Dead® Viability/cytotoxicity assays Solubility assays Permeability assays (PAMPA)     Human Serum Albumin binding assays     Lipophilicity assays     ADME-Tox assays     CatchPoint® cAMP assays     Caspase-3 and protease assays Features     Multi-detection ability     Dual-mode cuvette port     Dual monochromators     Instrument & software validation     Robotics compatible     Pathcheck® and well volume sensors       Compound Profiling Assays SpectraMax microplate readers are ideal for increased throughput of early ADME compound profiling assays such as the Transil® Membrane Affinity assay and Human Serum Albumin Binding assay. The Membrane Affinity assay provides high-throughput lipophilicity data equivalent to liposome-based methods without the need for ultracentrifugation. The Human Serum Albumin Binding assay provides high-throughput blood protein binding data by measuring the fraction bound to Human Serum Albumin.       Specifications Absorbance photometric performance Wavelength Range 200-1000 nm Wavelength Selection Monochromator, tunable in 1.0 nm increments Wavelength Bandwidth < 4.0 nm Wavelength Accuracy ±2.0 nm Wavelength Repeatability ±0.2 nm Photometric Range 0-4.0 OD Photometric Resolution 0.001 OD Photometric Accuracy (Microplate) < ±0.006 OD ±1.0%, 0-2 OD Photometric Accuracy (Cuvette) < ±0.005 OD ±1.0%, 0-2 OD Photometric Precision < ±0.003 OD ±1.0%, 0-2 OD Baseline Flatness < 0.001 OD Stray Light < 0.05% @ 230 nm Fluorescence photometric performance Dual Monochromators 1 nm increments EX 250-850 nm EM 360-850 nm Bandwidth (EX, EM) 9, 9 nm Detection Limit 3.0 fmol/well FITC 200 µlin 96 wells (signal 3X std. dev. of baseline) Time-resolved fluorescence (secondary mode) Wavelength Range 360-850 nm Data Collection 50-1450 µsec, 200 µsec increments Sensitivity 0.5 fmol/well Eu-chelate (obtained with DELFIA® reagent from Perkin Elmer by using a 384-well plate) Luminescence (secondary mode) Wavelength Range 360-850 nm Detection Limit 10 amol/well alkaline phosphatase 200 µl/well (obtained with Emerald II™ reagent from Applied Biosystems) General performance Plate Formats 6, 12, 24, 48, 96, 384 wells Light Source Xenon flash lamp (1 joule/flash) Detector Photomultiplier (R-3896) Read Time** 96-well 384-well Abs 18 sec., FI 15 sec.
